    What is the total value of this find? I skimmed the article, but I didn’t see a statement about the coin materials. Are any of them silver or gold? One picture looked like it was copper or bronze.

      I think it’s probably way to early to know. I imagine it’ll largely depend on rarity and condition and with the being so many it’ll probably take a while to catalog everything. I honestly don’t know though.
